The People's Republic of Praksia is a large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 56 million Praksians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 44.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Praksian economy, worth 1.78 trillion lire a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 31,837 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects, and the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Praksia's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Praksia is ranked 57,110^th in the world and 33^rd in Byzantion for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 544.65 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
